Diwali photo prompts

Diwali falls on Sunday, 8 November 2026, and these prompts are built for the photos people share that week: a couple lighting diyas on a balcony, sparklers (phuljhadi) in a lane full of rangoli, sky lanterns over a rooftop, or a solo portrait in a silk kurta with marigold garlands behind you. Every prompt starts from your own photo, so the faces stay yours while Gemini adds the lamps, lights and festive outfit.

For couple shots, upload one photo with both of you in it rather than two separate pictures; the result keeps your relative heights and poses far more reliably. Warm scenes work best from a photo taken in soft daylight, because harsh flash fights the orange glow the prompt asks for.
